Then Sings My Soul: 52 of the Greatest Song Stories Ever Told

The songs which are inspired by the Spirit of God are powerful tools that bring messages of hope, healing and happiness directly to His people. Throughout the centuries, God has entrusted men and women to bring Him adoration and thanksgiving through anointed music. The Bible contains a multitude of messages concerning the songs of praise to God.

One fact or characteristic concerning so many of the stories behind famous hymns, as well as contemporary praise and worship songs, is that they are born out of dark and gloomy situations in the lives of the authors. Into the shadows God sends rays of "sunlight" in the form of biblical lyrics and beautiful melodies which are later shared with Christians around the world.

Some of these songs stories are humorous, some are very somber, some are incredibly intriguing, but all are true—true stories behind the greatest hymns and songs of praise of all time.
